| When Frank had surgery this spring, some of the people he works with sent him a pot of Dutch bulbs. They came by mail, and when we opened the box, we were amazed. It was a large flat bowl covered with moss, and peeking out from the moss was a miniature forest of plant shoots. We placed the pot where it could catch the sun and watered the soil. |
| SPRING growth |
 |
| Day by day, we watched it grow. Each morning, the shoots would be longer, and within a week, buds appeared. |
 |
| Now we have a mass of spring blossoms--tulips, crocuses, lilies of the valley. They grew so large we had to transplant them in the yard. Now, we can enjoy spring flowers for years to come. |

| This issue of the website is on the seasons--the science behind them and the beauty of each. We look at growth from the standpoint of our now one-year-old granddaughter, and we'll consider the seasons of the soul. I hope you enjoy this issue, and that you'll respond with your own thoughts about the seasons, either physical or spiritual. Just click on b.silvey@sbcglobal.net to share your thoughts. |
